Nia Black Belt Teacher

St. Louis, Missouri, United States

Nia is the perfect blend of music * mindful movement * and a sprinkle of magic to create this dance zen experience that always makes me feel better in my body and relaxed in my mind. Nia is a sure thing. I know my students will feel more connected to themselves and each other through the sequences and smiles we share in class. The combination of dance arts, martial arts, and healing arts creates a perfect fusion fitness experience and a balance between masculine and feminine energies. Each class has its own energy that I play with in order to create an ongoing practice. Behind all Nia classes is an inherent knowledge of The Body's Way and a focus on increasing flexibillity, agiligity, mobility, stability, and strength. I love retaining students over many months and years. Creating rapport and community is essential to the class dynamic. I feel grateful every day that I stepped into a Nia class many years ago. I have met many wonderful women around the world who are passionate about dancing Nia and taking on this lifestyle practice. The world is just a little sweeter with Nia in it and the Joy of Movement inspirses so many metaphors in daily life. Tapping into the intelligence of my Body's Way has been life changing for me. I hope you can join me!
